Spreadhouse Cafe

The space is huge and nice. But the coffee and tea are only alright, and overpriced. Coffee are like more than $ 5. Maybe it’s more than a bar than a coffee house? Didn’t see the swing. There’s check. It’s a great place to hangout because of the huge space.

I came to Spreadhouse yesterday to get some work done. After seeing it in Unilocal for a while, I decided yesterday was going to be the day.
I got the matcha latte, and it was perfect! Baristas are friendly as well.
What I like most about Spreadhouse is its open door with plenty of space for people to get their work done. There are tables, floor seating, cute armchairs, etc. Internet is strong. It has a VERY chill vibe with thoughtful design. Most people were doing some kind of work, but there were people also just hanging out, too. I definitely can’t wait to go back.

Standard coffee nothing too special about it. A bit more expensive than normal lattes (I paid $ 5.5 for the iced matcha latte).
I do like the open seating area with comfortable cushions and wooden tables. You don’t see that very often in cafes. People mostly come here to do work on their computers (free wifi). The lighting is kind of dim so not ideal place to read.
Overall, I like the relaxing atmosphere and the music they play. It’s a nice place to chill and kill time: D

I came to this café after looking at the photos on Unilocal.I needed to kill time with a few friends before dinner so we ended up here. What really drew me here was the swinging bird cage chair. We walked in and was disappointed because it wasn’t there but that’s okay because it looked really chill and cozy.
The girl at the cashier was nice!
The drinks here are overpriced and not that great. But I guess no one really comes here for the drinks right? It’s just a place to kill time or to study or do work.
My friend got the iced matcha. It was pretty bad. I didn’t try it but we do have high expectations. Maybe it’s because we’re Asian and we know what good matcha is LOL
I got the iced tea. It was unsweetened and I had no clue what tea it was. It was a whatever tea. They were really hipster looking and Instagram worthy but it wasn’t worth the price.
We found a spot to sit at one of the cushion seats with a table. The cushions kept sliding off and it was uncomfortable.
I love how they have a printer here! You can print stuff for 19 cents a sheet!!!
The bathroom was pretty clean.
Still extremely disappointed that the chairs weren’t there :(
The music is also pretty loud but this is a great place to do work!

This Café boasts an interesting and unique environment. There is open seating consisting of benches and floor cushions on one side and tables and chairs towards the back of the café. The coffee was okay, but the price is a bit on the higher side — $ 5.25 for a small late and .$ 50 to add soy milk.
This place is crowded though, especially during peak hours in the afternoon. People are literally stacked on top of each other. The music is also really loud where they are blasting Kanye non-​stop, which is disappointing cause it takes away from the chill environment. Consequently, all these factors also make it a place NOT very conducive to studying. Moreover, the wifi seemed a bit slow due to the amount of people all connecting to the same network. I was watching 20 minute videos that kept lagging every few minutes.
May be a better place to come if you are a tourist, or if you are out with friends. The prices are steep too.

I really love this place and come here most days to get some work done… My only complaint is that they BLAST the music. It’s just way too loud (especially if you happen to sit right under a speaker) and I can even hear it over my headphones.

Came here was really by accident as my original scheduled place was closed… but this was indeed a sweet surprise! Entering into the coffee shop was more like going into a forest, where everything was wood-​made and retained its wild nature. Sipping cappuccino inside was more like having a short journey away from Manhattan, something I was always looking for during the weekend.
If you are a big fan of dark and strong coffee, spreadhouse might not be your first choice, as the taste was a bit tilted towards light and balanced. But if you are looking for some place for a short break, or prefer to spend sometime alone, definitely drop by and enjoy a cup!

Great bar on the lower east side. Was packed when I went in, mostly students working on their assignments or creating social media NYC history. Was a good break for me after a long walk on the lower east waterfront on a summer day with the sun was at its peak. Got a nice IPA and others got tea/​coffee. Have to say, with a decent beer/​wine list and caffeine it does cater to a nice market.
Did not find the hanging chairs I saw in the reviews, but plenty of other couches, communal tables, floor cushions and comfy spots. Will try to test their wifi and be a write social media history on my next trip !

I love Spreadhouse Coffee because I can always find peace here. This is one of the only cafes I go to regularly and don’t need my own headphones for because everybody is respectably quiet. Dough doughnuts are also a nice little addition to this café. However, drinks from coffee to tea are just average to me.

As far as coffee shops go, I love this place. It’s a really chill atmosphere. I love the way this place is designed: minimalist, but with different levels of seating: There are couches on platforms, space on these platforms where you can sit down on the floor (or on a cushion), coffee-​table style seating, normal café-​style tables and even a community table. When I was there, the music that was playing was chill hip-hop/R&B. The service was great and the chai latte I had was really good (coming from an Indian person who knows her chai).
I was also impressed at how clean the bathroom was.
My only complaint is that besides your normal café-​style pastries and beverages, there aren’t many food options: just a limited number of appetizers and salads.
Nonetheless, this place has become my favorite place to study. It also helps that there are like a million outlets along the platform area (though they may want to install a few on or around the community table).

Looooooooove this place! The atmosphere is like no other coffee shop anywhere in New York City. Suuuuuuuper cool and cute and comfy.
This place gets very crowded with people camping and staying on their computer all day, which sucks, but I take mine out. Too bad for that because they play good music. I wish I could stay, but there’s never a seat.
And the matcha latte is OFF the rails. And they serve beer! Not with a matcha latte! lol
Friendly baristas. I will be back here very very shortly. No doubt.

I’ve tried to come here twice but they were closed the first time and too packed the second time.
Third time’s the charm though!
I got an iced matcha latte and an oatmeal cookie. The matcha flavor wasn’t quite there but the oatmeal cookie was good. They also have small bites and meals like toast and salads in jars, but I didn’t try any.
This is great for studying. They don’t cram a bunch of tables and chairs in the space (good luck getting a seat in the afternoon) so it’s very spacious. One wall is lined with cushioned seats and further down there are just cushions on the ground. In the back, there’s long a communal table great for spreading stuff out on to work and on the side by the bar, there are 3 tables for 2.

I’m a fan of the casual and trendy Spreadhouse Coffee: it’s a comfortable place to grab a pastry or Dough doughnut, some tea/​coffee, and chat with friends or do some work. Whoever chooses the music here has great taste, which is why I think it’d be hard to focus for awhile on your work, cause you might find yourself enjoying the tunes instead. :)
I like that the servers don’t sweeten your drink for you, but instead there’s a bottle of syrup you can use to do that to your taste. I dig the patterned floor mats and couch seating /​seat cushions; the ceramics on the wooden ledges on the walls add a streamlined, classy touch to this coffeehouse.
I’m glad that their bathroom is spacious, clean, and comes with Febreze. The free wifi and ample outlets are a huge plus, too! The only thing I’m sad about is: where did their swivel straw chairs go? I enjoyed sitting there during my first time here, but they’re gone now! Still, there are plenty of other seating options here.

Spreadhouse is so hipster; everyone’s doing their thing (reading, studying, utilizing the outlets, or just sleeping). The space is up for grabs early in the morning (obviously).
I had the matcha latte and I enjoyed drinking it.

Great place to grab a coffee and get some work done. Very laid back vibe in here– demonstrated by the seating in the front area being on cushions on the floor, where hipsters and students alike are writing their screenplay or cramming for their exams. If you can grab a spot in the armchairs facing the bar, you have a great vantage point and endless outlets so you can work for hours.
The staff is friendly and make a great coffee. The iced hibiscus tea is also good on a warm day. They have some light beats playing through their speakers playing and a relatively quiet atmosphere. Pretty cool décor too!

The chill living room of your dreams.
Except for the wifi. It’s ok, but not blazingly fast.
But what do you need blazingly fast wifi for, anyway, other than porn? And I don’t want you watching porn in my living room. That’s gross.

Definitely a cozy place to study or kill some time. It’s spacious and very relaxed in here — it’s like they want you to stay forever! They have free wifi, outlets, a well-​lit bathroom, comfy couches and snacks. Coffee was alright — I can’t say anything too amazing about it, though.
As of 3÷26÷16 — where’s the chair? :(

I don’t even want to write a review because I love this place so much. Please don’t come here. I want a seat.
Love the space, the latte, THE CHAIR, the outlets, the free wifi, the couches, the little half seat that doesn’t fit any butt on the side of the bar, the chillness.
Don’t come here.

What a cute spot to read or do some work!
Super cozy and homey. Most of the crowd is in college or in their twenties. Great playlist. Coffee was fine.
They dont have anything to warm up the pastries, so my cookie was a bit cold and hard to eat.
They do have a really cool pink lighted bathroom though.

I am so happy I found this gem on my way to an appointment.
Now that I’ve made it a regular stop– I find the staff to always be friendly. They have a good selection of snacks. The layout is really cool in here too. I like the way the seats are raised without having people crammed next to one another.
Most importantly they always make my drinks perfectly.

Overall, this is a nice space to hang out or to get some work done. Unfortunately for us, we came too late on a weeknight so there wasn’t much coffee left. Apparently, they serve coffee during the day and drinks at night. They only had cold brew coffee, which we took part in. We loved the atmosphere and layout of the place. It’s actually very spacious with great seating throughout from single spots to long tables. Great spot to go have a quiet chat with someone.

3.5 stars. My friends and I decided to stop in here because we had some time before brunch. We grabbed some seats while we decided what to get. I went with an iced latte and a passion fruit doughnut and my friends had hot coffee and tea. I thought the latte was good, coffee flavor was strong and the milk gave it a nice texture. Although I liked the doughnut, it was more bread-​like in consistency than the doughnuts I prefer. This café is cute and you know there was a lot of thought put into the décor to make it a comfortable environment.
I love how there isn’t a need to use up all available space, but a couple more seats wouldn’t hurt. It was our fault for missing the sign at the door, but they had to clear up the space and set up for a vegan event; I was only halfway through my doughnut, womp womp. Overall, a great place to unwind or work. I wouldn’t necessarily go out of my way to check out this place, but if you’re in the area, definitely a nice option!

The ambience itself deserves a five star. I love how it looks like a warehouse on the inside. From the outside, you could easily miss this place. Generally a very casual and hip setting with lots of space to sit and work.
I got a passionfruit donut, and it was good, but the passionfruit frosting was a bit sweeter than I expected, and the donut itself was a bit dryer than I would have liked. As a donut lover, I definitely find this place to be above average, but I’m not sure it beats Doughnut Plant in Chelsea or my all time favorite Union Square Doughnuts back home in Boston.
I also ordered a small ice coffee. I’m someone who enjoys drinking americanos, and I thought this ice coffee + milk + sugar had a great sweetness to bitterness ratio.
